Tuchel knocks out Bayern's Korea edge. Kim moved from Italian champions Naples to FC Bayern for a fixed transfer fee of around 45 million euros.

The South Korean, who was voted the best defender of the last Serie A season, was immediately selected by the German record champions. In the middle of the recent FCB crisis, Tuchel put him on the bench. Dayot Upamecano and Kim played together in central defense, but they missed what makes a good defense: the coordination, says Bayern’s defensive legend Klaus Augenthaler.
